About us

The CCVMF was chartered in October 2000 and is a 501 (c) (3) federal tax exempt organization. Our purpose is to "preserve the memories and honor the military service" of thousands of young Craighead County men and women who have served America through the years. We invite everyone who has lived, worked, gone to school, or who has family or other strong connections in Craighead County to purchase and place an engraved brick on our monument.
